David,
I have used the Avast removal tool in normal Windows and it worked fine. Also, if you stop on-access protection prior to using add/remove, that usually also works for the removal.

I wish you hadn't said that, I have enough grey hair already.

Stanley:
First off, thanks for the information on avast's version 5 accessibility.
Second, You're correct in that You will have to use the uninstall tool in
safe mood which makes jaws unusable. You will need sighted assistance to
complete this project.

Hi list.  I tried the new Avast 5.0 free version out on my PC this
morning,
found it inaccessible with Jaws because alwil Software has changed the
interface into a graphical interface, so I restored my computer using my
backup I created with Image for Windowswhich already had Avast 4 Home
Edition.  Now, what I would like to do is uninstall Avast 4 Home Edition
and
use Microsoft Security Essentials instead.  I have tried to uninstall
Avast
in the past, but it didn't completely uninstall and was still in the
system
tray when I rebooted.  Right now I'm still using Avast 4 Home Edition and
Windows XP Professional SP3.  I'm using Jaws 9.0, the latest build.  I
have
downloaded alwil Software's uninstall utility, but I'm told I will need to
use it in Safe Mode.  Any help will be appreciated.  Thanks a lot.
Stanley
